I add a JComboBox in a toolbar (inside a JFrame), and I'dlike to remove the border of the JComboBox. I can remove the border of the JButton of the toolbar, but I can't change the border of the JComboBox.
Setting a new border in it just adds the border to the default border of the JComboBox, but does not replace it.

This is a piece of code which reproduce the problem :

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class JComboProblem extends JFrame
{

	public JComboProblem()
	{
		super();

		addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
			public void windowClosing(WindowEvent ev) {
				System.exit(0);
			}
		});

		JPanel panel = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
		getContentPane().add(panel);

		JToolBar tb = new JToolBar();
		panel.add(tb, BorderLayout.NORTH);

		JButton button = new JButton("Do nothing");
		button.setBorderPainted(false);
		tb.add(button);

		JComboBox cb = new JComboBox();

		cb.addItem("25%");
		cb.addItem("50%");
		cb.addItem("100%");
		cb.addItem("200%");

		cb.setMaximumSize(cb.getMinimumSize());
		tb.add(cb);

//		cb.setBorder(null); // Do nothing
		cb.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder(0, 0, 0, 0)); // Do nothing
//		cb.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEtchedBorder()); // Adds the border to the existing border but does not replace it

		setSize(400, 300);
		setVisible(true);
	}

	public static void main(String argv[])
	{
		new JComboProblem();
	}
}

I could be useful to have a JComboBox.setBorderPainted (and JComboBox.setFocusPainted) method(s).
